I'm not really concerned all that much much about the direction of the Jumpman, or whether it's blue or purple, or whether the tongue tab has 'JAM' on it.
Those are interesting aesthetic details I guess, but all I truly care about is the comfort and quality of these. Sometimes quality complaints are exaggerated, but not when it comes to the '09 Space Jam. They may look adequate, but they feel awful. Whereas the 2000 were just fine.
The quality and comfort of the 72-10 has given me a little hope that Nike will do these properly.
